Peter Cards Interview after Paul Malignaggi's Italian Win

Hi
Peter,

Thanks for joining us here at Boxing Kingdom.

PC:
No problems. Great to interview here.

BK:
Great to see Paulie get the win in Milan against Fazekas, can you describe how
the fight went?

PC:
The fight went well, very short notice and not a lot of time to train. More of
the focus was on making weight because he had a lot of travel due to his commentary
work but overall we were happy with the performance.

BK:
From all reports the crowd was a sellout. What was the number like and how was
the atmosphere?

PC:
The atmosphere was phenomenal, big thanks to the Cerchi family Opi 2000
promotions. The city of Milan recieved us very well and showed Paulie a lot of
love. The venue was small but packed and full with love and excitement.

BK:
Seemed like it was on Paulie's list of things to do, fight in Italy in front of
his home fans?

PC:
Yes- we can now check that off the list. Fingers crossed next on the list will
be to fight in the UK against a non Brit.

BK:
Do you feel Paulie will fight on, a bout with Branco for the EU title has
been talked about for a while?

PC:
It has been talked about for a while and that is part of the plan and we are in
constant talks about it but nothing is solidified yet.

BK:
Congratulations on the podcast which is now past 22 episodes. Is there
future plans to grow this?

PC:
Thank you, I appreciate it. It started out as just fun but from the attention
we have been receiving there may be other interests possibly in radio and we
are open for all those possible opportunities.

BK:
How are your fighters going that you are training?

PC:
I'm only with no, we know the statues of Paulie already. Junior Younan is
scheduled to fight December 5th in Florida he is 7-0, 6
Knockouts and is signed to ROC Nation.
